CONNECTING CHEFS AND FOODIES!

This topic would end up asking a lot of heartfelt questions asked by customers, such as:
1. For how long are gravies genuinely kept in the freezer bvewfore they are disposed of?
2. For how long are meatts and fish kept in the freezers before they are disposed of?
3. How many of us would go through the trouble of making our own misa/ masalas/ sauces rather than buy them off the shelf?

gravies can stay for a arnd 3 weeks

meats for a few months

i wud prefer making my own sauces
Ans.
1. Not more than three days bcoz, it looses taste, texture & aroma. specially with indian food.
2. Red meats (Beef, Pork & Lamb ) can stay for 40-50 days, but if u r talking about white meat (sea food & poultry ) not more than 15-20 days.
3. Almoast all professionals faced such problems, bcoz it depends upon availability, season & efforts.
I've seen lambchops that has been in the freezer for over a year, same with fish, cooked and prepared. It's all good!
I usually keep my gravies for about 2-3 weeks.

I would thoroughly season my meats, wrap it in plastic wrap, then in a ziplock bag - it will stay fresh for over 4-5 months. Fish, I would portion out wrap each piece in plastic wrap, then aluminium foil, then ziplock bag - it will stay fresh for over 3 months. For shrimp, I would place in a large bowl of water and put in the freezer..it can stay fresh for a very long time.

I prefer making my own sauces.
